3 months after rapidly scheduled arguments, the Supreme Court has yet to decide on Trump's tariffs [View all]

WASHINGTON (AP) — When the Supreme Court granted an unusually quick hearing over President Donald Trump's tariffs, a similarly rapid resolution seemed possible.

After all, Trump's lawyers told the court that speed was of the essence on an issue central to the Republican president's economic agenda. They pointed to a statement from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warning that the “longer a final ruling is delayed, the greater the risk of economic disruption.”

But nearly three months have elapsed since arguments in the closely watched case, and the court isn't scheduled to meet in public for more than three weeks.

No one knows for sure what's going on among the nine justices, several of whom expressed skepticism about the tariffs' legality at arguments in November. But the timeline for deciding the case now looks more or less typical and could reflect the normal back-and-forth that occurs not just in the biggest cases but in almost all the disputes the justices hear.
